2nd 5 (3) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Very hit and miss across his four starts this season and well beaten at York (2m, good) last month; however, he's posted two comfortable wins in small fields this term (1m4f/2m, good/soft) and this two-time course winner is not written off with the forecast slow ground in his favour. |
20/1 |

13th 9 (7) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Only his second attempt over this far in a 31-race career came at Goodwood (soft) ten weeks ago when he came from the rear in a six-runner race to win by 5l; 6lb higher today (with more to prove if the ground is firmer than good) but new horizons as a stayer have been opened up. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Yet to win a handicap on turf but won over hurdles (good to soft) and on AW earlier this year and did very well to finish third of 15 in the big 2m4f handicap at the Glorious meeting when 5lb out of the weights; just 1lb lower this time and balance of form suggests he'll need more back at 1m6f. |

3rd 17 (8) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 137y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
14th at 100-1 in this race in 2024; won at Kempton this year over hurdles and on AW Flat, and similar Flat form over that 2m on last two runs, but much better is needed from 5lb out of the handicap today; 7lb claimer is called up. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Pulled up over hurdles on final two runs for Ben Pauling but he won his two previous Flat races when trained in Ireland and belatedly completed a hat-trick when coming from last to first despite steady fractions in a 1m6f handicap at Sandown in June (good); raised a fair 5lb; showed some early promise on slow ground. |
7/2 |

1st 2 (6) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Four AW wins in Ireland in 2024 (10.7f-1m4f), all in blinkers; modest hurdle form for Ben Pauling in 2025; makes his stable debut after 205 days off and he goes without headgear. |

4th 3 (12) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
His last Flat win came in France in 2022 but he won over hurdles last autumn and was a clear second of five to stablemate High Fibre in this code at Newmarket (2m, good to firm) last month; probably versatile ground-wise and holds each-way possibilities. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Hasn't scored under this code since his French days in 2022 but looks interesting with usual visor removed, having gained all wins (Flat/hurdles) without headgear; yard also runs High Fibre. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Eleven wins include one over C&D (soft; equally effective on good to firm) on yard debut in June; back up 6lb but has won off slightly higher marks on the AW and his latest Sandown third, where he kept persevering, suggests he should be on the premises again. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Career win number 11 when coming clear at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) on his debut for Tony Carroll; effective on faster ground and a 6lb rise might not stop him if he's turned a corner. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Did well in 2024 and then had 592 days off the track; signs of a revival when seventh in the Northumberland Plate but his Kempton run (behind Maxident) was disappointing. |

Did well in 2024 and then had 592 days off the track; signs of rediscovering his form when 4l behind Believitanducan in the Northumberland Vase (2m AW); dropped 3lb and in the mix. |

9st 7lb |
Completed a hat-trick of wins at around 2m when winning at Lingfield (good) in June off a 7lb lower mark than today's, but he was disappointing at York 42 days ago; drops in grade needing to bounce back. |
